Mission Hill Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2003 (British Columbia)
$20.95 (LCBO #553321)
We don't see a lot of wines from British Columbia in our market, but the reds grown in southern part of the province around Oliver and Osoyoos are impressive. This Cabernet is deep purple in colour with a bouquet of vanilla, cedar and blackcurrants with a grace note of rose petals; it's medium bodied, dry, well balanced with nicely integrated oak. ****Food match: rack of lamb; grilled quail
